Will NOT work in my DellXPS 702. Do you need to install new drivers? Help I installed this in my Dell XPS 17" 702 laptop due to all the wonderful reviews on this site. I simply pulled out the old and inserted the new, but after I turn on my laptop and...

If your laptop is running Win 7 Home Basic then you can only have 8GB of RAM if you have the Premium then you can install 16GB like you are trying. Also, you need to make sure that you are using the same frequencies that your laptop supports. Hope that helps.

I used it on an XP SP3 upgraded to 8/8.1 without a problem. I don't believe it carried over the driver from XP in the upgrade. If it did, however, using Win 7 drivers and compatibility mode should work.

Yes but, You must go to the Dell site and get the Windows 7 drivers. Or find out what type of laptop it was originally installed in more than likly it was Dell though. I hope this helps. R H

when i installed it on my system (not a dell XPS 8300) i ran into a few issues because the driver from the cd-rom and from the ati website over clocked the video card without any notification, when i notice that (after a week trying in many systems) i have uncheck the overclock and after that it worked just fine. hope that help you.

No. Ditto Libby. My advice is go to the manufacturer for an OEM card, if possible. Dell didn't have one for me, and this one didn't work. I'd have returned it but it was too big a hassle.

I'm sure you've probably found a driver, but this is for those who have not... GMYLE was unhelpful in providing a driver that worked - in fact, when I contacted them, their only response was to ask for my Amazon Order #, then crickets. Over the course of a few days I tried a number of Renesas drivers, none of which worked. But cDuck28Z's link provides a driver that worked on my HP Pavilion dv2700 running Windows 7. Thank you, cDuck28Z.

It's avertised to work with WINDOWS XP. I a'm currently using it with WINDOWS 7 PRO. That's probably why I had to download new drivers. Good luck!

I tried on a Dell XPS with Win 7 Pro, 32 bit and would not work, no video out. The older AGP card, a 128 meg card, no driver was everfound to work with it on Win 7 so this attempt to get accelerated graphics to work with Win 7. The older card was fine with XP 32 bit.

If you are still using Windows XP, you will need to disable the windows drivers for this and install the drivers that come with it. I had much difficulty setting this device up with XP. Works much better with 7. Do not uninstall the Windows drivers. Only disable them. If you are still having issues or it is not working with Windows Vista or 7, I suggest you talk with the manufacturer and see if they can help.

Make sure it is fully plugged into your laptop. There is usually a screw on the bottom that holds this drive in place. Usually a Windows system would already have SATA drivers, but if the system doesn't recognize this drive, then go to your laptop manufacturer's site and see if there is a driver you can download for the DVD drive and/or SATA. Which OS do you have? Windows 7 or 8 should automatically recognize this drive, but XP might need a driver installed, and also may need a reboot afterwards. Then again, if nothing seems to work, after trying everything, you might have gotten a dud. It does happen sometimes. Does it have power. Does the tray open when you push the button? Good luck.

Drivers automatically found and downloaded for Win7 32 bit no problem. I was not able to get drivers for Windows XP.

I waoul like to help you although I don/t know that I can. My computer is a Dell XPS and unfortunately it didn't work on mine. To be presise it did nothing and I was not able to return it. The company from which I bought it said, "We don't want it." I don't either. If I were you I'd look for something else from a different supplier. Mine was purchased from a supplier advertizing on Amazon.

I only have XP but as I interpret their specs, XP is mentioned only as a minimum requirement and to assure people with old systems like mine that it will still work. Surely it will work with the newer ones.
